13-Year Green Beret IED Survivor Ryan Hendrickson | Mike Drop Ep. 214

[@girthybrowns4489]

This must’ve been one of the most genuine guests I’ve seen on Mike’s podcast so far. What a humble and amazing human being.

[@EdwinClayton-nd6ut]

Whoa...what a story. The challenges, your introspection, your character. You may be the most complete human being I ve ever seen. This nation should be worthy of you and your associates. God bless you and your work!

[@brendawerner5425]

Thank you I'm sitting in ICU with my husband and your story gives me hope that we can bounce back

[@jeffdowdy5113]

This guy is real as it gets.

[@TrumpedUp888]

Ryan! You are one bad ass! Thank you for your honorable service and the sacrifices seen and unseen. Godspeed with your business.

[@johncatlin6181]

once again my man Ritland does it again !! awesome interview and amazing guest!

[@massterrbarber]

Thanks for serving

[@nicorusso1526]

This is what I’m talking about! Great way to start a two week vacation! Thx for keeping my sanity whilst I recover from surgery!

[@havoc391]

Holy S$&@! What an amazing person to incorporate and be humble enough to listen to the sage advise of his father after his life’s experience. But the amount of love combined with insight of a dad to communicate his knowledge of life to his son. You end up with a premium adult like Ryan. Not only a heartfelt shoutout to Ryan for all of his contribution and suffering to Americans and this country. But his fathers contributions to saving his son from the final horrible end spot so many veterans are falling into. Thank you from a father of an army soldier and a naval aviator for sharing a perfect way to keep my boys on the trajectory away from a slow death to a rewarding and productive life. Great video Mike.

[@tracyemms537]

Thank you ! This is going to be epic ! Thank you for your service 🇺🇲

[@estebanperez3931]

Badass guest, thank you both for the gems.

[@BennyAndTheJets86]

Awesome $hit Mike! Hearing Kyle Morgan’s side of that story was insane! Those two are some serious hero’s man! Have every ounce of my respect.

[@camlaf6277]

Really raw and real. Great interview. I don't know how you're not as big as other streamers giving a voice to vets and first responders.

[@tankerjag2278]

Excellent interview. Reflection of life at 1:34:00 incredible. God bless.

[@corywatterson7560]

Sone of us think about you veterans all the time. Thank you!

[@jakhaughton1800]

Not leaving fellow soldiers behind, whether they be American or Afghan is very honourable. Also it’s lovely my heroic friend, Benno’s picture ‘In to the breach’ is still there.

[@lacklanruusse1760]

I think I’m stressed then I watch these videos to remind myself what real stress is,

[@jakedogg4206]

Mike , thank you as always for providing the platform for these discussions... there is a lot of work that goes into making this possible that I want to let you know is appreciated. Ryan, brother,I have to say that , in my opinion, I'm not sure you are as far as you think you are mentally and I am only saying this bc if you are hearing it from other places...please be open minded to what they are saying. I am inspired by your account of what you have been through and I want to say to you thank you for your service...but I actually want to go one step further and thank you for putting your life on the line and all the sacrifices you have made and I pray we don't all let you down by not doing everything we can to give you everything your ARE desiring of for sacrificing yourself when are country called on you. Hell of a guy! Godspeed brother

[@saileshnatenatesan8495]

Awesome episode as always 🙏🏼🇺🇲

[@PushinDaCushion]

I almost died a few years back. As I’m lying there, a serpent came to me and said that I would die for the way I was living my life. A holy battle took place in the background, and something that I could only describe as an angle came to me and told me to say the prayer and confess, so I fought saying the prayer for a couple minutes over my complex of feeling guilty and only using God in times of need. Eventually I said it because I was not doing any better and the serpent was coming closer. As soon as I said the prayer, the holy war got louder, then complete silence. Light and peace in my soul from wrongdoing didn’t bother me, and I was at peace if I died. I ended up pulling through. I took a picture of the field when I went back to that spot, and to me, the fog-mirrored angels that had won a battle ended up changing my entire life.

[@AUTOxMATIK]

Fake news

[@josephfox4661]

Was listening and realized some things sounded familiar. I forgot I read his book. Really solid read.

[@brianclassen5221]

From a fellow Oregonian, Scio, Thanks for what you have done and continue to do. I just finished your book this morning. ✌

[@kalbcorp]

Salem !!! 🤙

[@kalbcorp]

"Fecal matter coming out of your ear !? " hahahaha 🙃🤪 took a minute

[@johncatlin6181]

[@jcdg0509]

Uncle served, few deployments, always said you “you may not be tip of the spear but you can be part of it”

[@JoePaPodcast]

As always good interview, and I appreciate watching your style in navigating trauma, helps me hone this craft of podcasting. Have you interviewed any RPA guys or CAA's if not I know a guy.

[@offtheclaim1468]

Another sizzler...Mike's an awesome host

[@searl74]

Best interview ever 😁. Ryan said he's in a lot of pain, Cinchona Bark is my Holistic go to. I'm allergic to Opium drugs too 😁

[@Yeffronimo]

A GIANT F.U. to KZbin for putting ANY commercials in this interview, much less a commercial every three minutes.

[@donfrance3]

tough guy - difficult subject - MAX RESPECT they can sort of fix legs but it is never the same after.

[@maxpatty8370]

Hey Mike, can we get some recently retired SWCC guys on?

[@MikeRitland]

No. Just kidding. Any in mind?

[@JOCHOAIII]

Hey Mike, think we could get Nick Irving The Reaper on the show?

[@MikeRitland]

He’s been on a few times

[@mrjacktraeger]

He's on OG episodes, one of the first couple I think

[@iwandavies4844]

You certainly get the best out of your guests Mike

[@305Military]

mikes in a couch now 😅

[@matthewwhittington-jk9ep]

Epsiode 214

[@ThewarengineMetatron]

Morphine is weird I was a opioid addict for 2 decades did all forms and morphine would always give me hives. Heroin. Fentanyl dilauid, oxy, and so many others I never had that issue with. And it was only if I did it intravenously it had a strong burning sense after I’m doing it. I don’t know if that is me being allergic to it or just part of the drug.

[@bryanknight1056]

Histamine release, it's why you get the itchies on everything else. Heroin is rapidly converted to morphine btw, within a couple minutes after ingestion, so very likely there is no allergy there.

[@natureatitsnature5546]

I believes that Navy Seals are the best , fittest in the world -- saying as 23 years girl from India

[@ThewarengineMetatron]

There not there too bad but not the best. It’s CIA ground branch then delta/cag then special forces then marsoc then rangers the. police swat then some pogs then navy seals. lol just joking

[@hurri-eq2zy]

Maybe more people should think about the people who did the things that most people won't.

[@MarkSkorich-vs3ic]

💪🏻❤️🙏🏻🇺🇸

[@Diddley-js6lf]

But just because the Afghanistans Would Not Go does not mean Abe Would not have gone. Your Comrades are Your Comrades no matter what.

[@70stunes71]

👍💯🇱🇷

[@massterrbarber]

That’s very important to even admit to yourself to be able to look in a mirror and notice me too at point in my life I said fox whole prayers only when things are going wrong, but I wouldn’t recognize God when things were going right I wouldn’t give him that Recognition that it came from him once I started praying for a better relationship. I started praying to teach me how to pray. I pray to help me get a better relationship with God. It’s been a journey but now no more Fox whole prayers it all sincere bad good no matter whatthank you God if it’s something bad, thank you God and then what is it that you want me to learn from this once I started doing those things I’ll tell you what happened for me the bully that a 10-years old child could have made so back to the bullet I believe God blew his breath, and the bullet flew away from Trump. This was an election of a spiritual battle between good and evil.

[@jebo7697]

Ryan, dude! To go back and want to return to a battlefield says a lot about how naive you are, and as Americans, we all are. Ryan, I applaud your growth as you journey through life, but dude, to return to a battlefield is sick. The USA last 30 plus years of military conflicts was for not, nothing, death and injuries to you the soldier and the civilian population of the country to include the warriors you and others were told was the enemy a threat to the constitution. The last 4 years were the closest and most dangerous threat to the USA constitution! Ryan, you are so miseducated and propagandised wrongly. Your patriotic service was true for you and I, but please, dude, to want to return to a battlefield "Vietnam" that war was unnecessary as the war where you lost your leg. Dude, we lost the Vietnam War and all others after that, minus Grenada. And that was more a police action. Again, I applaud your service to mankind. Thanks, but revise your platform to better educate the next generation of volunteers for the military. There should be "none"! Read my other comment reference soft pedaling.

[@weirdmood8102]

Touch grass, man.

[@Yeffronimo]

First of all tool, we were never trying to win the Vietnam war. If we had been trying, we would have unleashed our Air Force on North Vietnam, not tied one arm of our Air power behind it's back. Korea, Vietnam, and the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan were all just battles of the Cold War. A place to test our equipment and tactics against Soviet and China weapons and tactics. We won the Cold War. Also, for you to tell a warrior what he fought for and what his beliefs SHOULD be and what your own deluded interpretation of the Constitution means, and you being some stay at home hippie with delusions of your own importance, is vile and disgusting. How about you leave the man stuff to men, put your hair up in man bun, and go argue with your friends over wine spritzers about what your pronouns are.

[@TyEMW1014]

This people are making themselves look like somebody they are not to cover up a human trafficking and racketeering operation

[@TheWhiteMan85]

2o thousand adds and I'm 😂gone

[@ALPHAMAGASLAP]

My father sacrificed himself in the Coastguard. My father saved four Coasties when a boiler exploded on the cutter he served on during the early 70s. All his Coasties made it out, but my father was trapped and severely burned. My father spent years in a burn unit. Nobody gives a fuck, though!!

[@Boatsussiowa]

Welcome home warrior, thank you for your service! God bless who Gave All aboard the USS Cole and my 47 brothers of the USS Iowa BB61, 0955 Never Forget! 🫡🇺🇸⚓️
